“ We arrived 20 minutes prior to closing, hoping the kitchen would still be open. We were surprised to be welcomed by a very friendly staff who assured us not to rush as the kitchen would be open right up until closing at 9PM. Our waitress was very friendly and provided her personal recommendations per my wife's request. I ordered the Desperado and it was great! The bartender was also very friendly! Despite being the last couple in the restaurant and not wrapping up until almost 9:30, the staff were fantastic, very hospitable, and everything we ordered was fantastic. The Spinach and Artichoke Dip was delicious, as well as my wife's sandwich, the Betsy Ross (BLT). We will definitely be back next time we're in the Wilmington/Wrightsville Beach area. Give this place a try if you haven't! ”

“ Wow! So happy I scrolled through multiple pages, finally deciding on Molly Pitcher's! Food was very impressive. For apps, we had these cool little homemade tots with mashed potatoes inside and also (stay with me here) duck and bacon dumplings. Both were great, and they give you enough to share. We had fish and chips and also a buffalo chicken sandwich. Again, both were really delicious, and very good size portions. We ended up bringing home most of them as leftovers. The chicken and the fish were excellent! Everything was high quality and tasty. Our server was friendly and attentive. He checked on us multiple times to see if we needed refills and how our food was. Can't remember his name, but we liked him. The patio was cool. Tables aren't too close, music isn't too loud, dog friendly, standard patio tables and chairs. Inside was pretty busy, so I had no hesitation heading outside to enjoy the beautiful Fall evening. It was a really great experience to start our anniversary long weekend in Wilmington. ”

“ Amazing! Can’t say enough good things about this place. It’s rich in historical vibes while having embrace certain aspects of the modern era. The menu is very much Southern Comfort food, but you can still find healthy and fresh options if you’re watching your waistline. i am not, contrary to my doctor’s pleas. So I order the fish and grits, which I was a little hesitant to get at first but the waitress explained that the grits weren’t loose. They prepare them kinda like a fried polenta. The whole thing is smothered in that pimento cheese sauce and well seasoned. They also top it with fresh pickled pico, it adds the right amount of acid/brightness to the whole thing! My friend got the meatloaf with mash potatoes and gravy. And a side salad... she must be better than me, LOL. I took a little bite and can vouch that the both the meatloaf and gravy are good enough to be from your grandma’s kitchen! Which as a girl growing up in rural Kansas is saying a lot. My grandma never made food from a packet and I think the same is true for Molly Pitcher’s kitchen staff. We ended up splitting a slice of one of the Cakes of the Day: Cherry Spiced Cake. It was EXCELLENT. Also I gave them my two cents of feed back that it would have been the best poke cake ever, which they said they make occasionally. Looks like I’ll have to come back. Next time I’ll have to get a cocktail too. They had several that intrigued me. And they seem to have excellent daily deals throughout the week. If you’re in the area, check this place out. If you’re local to Wilmington and haven’t been yet... What could you possible be doing that means you haven’t tried them yet?!?! Zero excuses! Get over here!!! ”

“ Had 1/2 price appetizers for dinner! Met family there. Had shrimp/oysters, chicken knuckles with buffalo sauce, bacon wrapped shrimp and cheese dip/crab cake/fried oysters/ pimento cheese/pita chips. All very good. Also tried the mint tea. Now that was different. I would have it again. ”

“ Our waitress Rachel did an amazing job kept our drinks full. We ordered an appetizer spinach artichoke dip which was delicious. One of the best in town. If you have never been here it's a must. ”

“ Immediately stepping into this establishment, you can tell it is a local watering hole. Overhearing conversations where patrons and staff call each other by first name. This is a place to gather with friends and have a pretty decent meal while enjoying each other‘s company. I really enjoyed the collards; they had a little kick. Meatloaf came on a skillet with more mash than one person could finish. Extra serving of gravy is recommended. ”

“ I was in town for work, and the reviews looked great, and I wasn't disappointed coming here for dinner. Great food and service! The hushpuppies were delicious, and so was the meatloaf! ”

“ My 1st time coming here and I will be back again. The hamburger and french fries was amazing and it’s half off on Mondays. The staff was awesome very helpful ”
